Do you want everyone at the party to freak out about your raw artistic food talent? Do you hate leftovers to bring home afterward? This mold went over so well you would think I invented cranberries. HINT for those of you who haven't made a mold like this before (such as myself before I made it) make sure you use WARM water only for a short time to loosen this. I used hot. For too long. It was more of a festive jello floating device after my mistake. However, the reviews were still raving and I was so proud of my awesome 50's style dessert.

I am diabetic and I love cranberry sauce, I just have to reduce the sugar per serving - So I use Sugar-free Pineapple, Orange or Strawberry Jello to mix with the whole cranberry sauce (makes it less tangy, it you perfer). I even make it just for myself any time of the year too! Nothing fancy, without the CoolWhip and just pour it into individual bowls. Sometimes I add a dash of Allspice to change the flavor a bit and just squirt some sugar-free CoolWhip on the top of it. YUMMY. Very adaptable recipe to change as you like.

I loved this recipe! It is so easy to make and super yummy. I used the Fat Free Cool Whip and sugar free Jello so it isn't really horrible for your diet!

This was excellent. If you expect sweet, you will not get it. I love tart things so this was right up my alley.

I also added an 1/8 tsp of cinnamon. This is my favorite jello recipe!
